The transfigured life
There is a little prayer in one of the Psalms, which says, "May the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us!" It is not too high a prayer for any of us to use every day. Christ came into this world, and lived and died — to make it possible for us to wear the Divine beauty.
We may wear it not merely as a holiday dress or when we are engaged in some religious service.
The beauty of the Lord shines just as bright in homespun attire, in the midst of the dust and clatter of the shop or the mill, or in the lowly duties of the kitchen — as it does in the church service, in the sacredness and quietness of the sanctuary.
The transfigured life is not a matter of place or time, or occupation — it is a matter of character . Many of the world's most radiant saints, walk the earth in lowliest disguises.
